Beautiful grounds, great anrea for walks and fun for the family. However the indoor pool water chemistry was dangerously off and water was so murky you could not see through it. Also the minute you walked into the indoor pool atea we were hit with the strongest chlorine smell, so much so it burned our eyes and nose we se quickly left. The outdoor pool and hot tub were nice and great outdoor bar and restaurant however the bartender Sandi I believe was not very friendly. The rooms were very outdated and had a very musky smell to them and we immediately had to open the windows and leave the porch door open. Carpet appears to be very old and heavily stained. Attention to detail sadly wasn’t there in that bed skirts were hanging off the bad and in disarray. Not a major concern but just lent us to think lack of pride in work/appearance probably extended to the cleanliness of the rooms. Breakfast also was just cold pastries and cereal. Could have been better in peak season but not a big deal. This was our third time staying here and sadly it is getting more unkept each time. Definitely time for an aesthetic upgrade as it’s beautiful grounds but sadly the accommodations are slipping into disarray.

Nice place to stay for 1 night. Staff were great & very helpful. You do have to drive & find parking to go in town. Bar by the pool was convenient for a beverage after a long day. Breakfast was basic, consisted of mostly bagels, English muffins & packaged muffins. There was fresh fruit & cold hard boiled eggs (I think) & some cereals. Would’ve liked more protein options. Also, the fitness center advertised on the site, which was a deciding factor on our stay, was closed. All in all though, we would stay there again.

I saw some negative reviews regarding the "older decor" of the property. If you know this in advance and you're not super bougie, this is the place to go. I actually enjoyed feeling like I was back 25 years ago before cell phones and chaos. The property is super clean and well-kept with a nice pool. The food at the outdoor restaurant was super reasonable, and drinks were cold. The breakfast was good and was restocked as soon as it got low. Everyone was friendly. The bed and pillows were super comfy and it was the best sleep I got all week in the 4 different hotels (most much newer) we were at. The AC was so cold we had to turn it down. I enjoyed the pool towels in the room and the chairs on the balcony to sit and relax. It is very tree heavy around and just a calming place to stay. Thank you for a short but wonderful stay, we will for sure be back.
